1952 Map of Ruby C-6

About this map

The Yukon River dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, its massive channel wrapping around the expanse of Big Island. The complex hydrology of the river is marked by the branching paths of Ruby Slough and Big Ruby Slough, creating a low-lying riparian environment that contrasts with the rising elevations to the south. Further inland, the terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Boston Creek and Main Creek which drain the surrounding highlands. Evidence of human presence is sparse and functional, indicated by isolated Cabins and a lone Cabin located near the southeastern corner. The name The Hub Hill stands out as a significant local landmark, likely serving as a navigational reference point for those traversing the wilderness between the river and the interior creeks like Little Bonanza Creek.
